Review: Braincandy: Smell My World
Super Cool Baby received a new DVD the other day. Braincandy: Smell My World is the start of a new series of DVDs covering the five senses. The DVDs are made for children six months to four years old.
These DVDs have a slightly different approach than others. Co-founder and CEO Sam Reich-Dagnen says, At Braincandy, we don't think the learning process should be about changing children into something, we think it should be about the experience. That's really where the learning is.
This series of DVDs is based on three straight-forward ideas:
- All children learn differently
- Young children learn best when they're encouraged to explore, experiment, and play in an organic, natural manner
- Presenting content through images and sounds, the Braincandy experience can help young children get ready to learn
The DVD itself is pretty simple. It features a funny character shaped by a nose, and there's a lot of exploration of the smells around us. Its hard to tell if this is truly engaging for infants, but Anderson at 18 months seemed to enjoy it!
The 5 Senses Series will be released on October 16th, and will cover sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch.
